chelsea sold Lukaku and are currently trying re-sign him. Their judgement of a striker given their abysmal record should be taken with a pinch of salt

The difference is that Lukaku left for game time as they had a top striker at the time (possibly Diego Costa?). Chelsea are playing Havertz as a false 9 instead of Abraham (as Werner can seemingly only play wide), they pretty much have no striker and yet they are still desperate to sell him.

This guy coming in is definitely linked to Kane going, if Kane is sold we’ll go all in on him in my opinion.

Just my opinion mate but I think he's worth a 40mil gamble to be honest. I think if we don't get him this window he will be out of our reach.
Agree. Considering Romero has similar experience and is a CB I would say 40-50 is fair.

Lukaku actually want to go back Chelsea?

No, he's happy and doesn't want to leave (said this in a TV interview).

If Chelsea convince Inter to sell then he has a decision to make.

Either way I hope we can move before any of these things potentially happen so that Chelsea and City start scrambling because Haaland isn't available this summer.

? Fair enough, usually avoid posting from those sources but think I've got Longari confused with Moretto who is decent. Apologies.

I get the feeling this ain’t happening. Seems like it’s more likely he signs a new deal. Obviously hope I’m wrong because we need to be thinking short and long term now, and I love the idea of a Vlahovic and Scarlett partnership in maybe 2-3 years. Could be really fun and I agree it’s probably now or never for this guy if we want to sign him.
